Thanks Tony.

Bizarrely it has several part numbers

106-14501-21 ; 14051-25; 14051-13

the -21 is stamped twice.

The hinge is stamped 106-14051-22

I have a section of engine cowl from a Varsity – the section near the wing

Happy to gift it to a restoration if the postage is paid.

Thanks for the confirmation Brian, I saw the 668 number was Varsity, but I don’t claim to be expert on numbers and when 66 is Harvard I never quite know which set of numbers to work from!

Steve the ultimate decider is a picture – one here that shows the inside of a varsity and two similar chairs ( half way down)

And not a pilots chair as seen here

Just been dealing with a chap in Russia and he offered me the following..

No interest to me but let me know if I can make an introduction.

The joystick for the YAK-28 bomber.

He also had some Valentine tank hatches but postage is high…

Oppama thank you for all you help.

Kanji remains difficult for me to understand and I rely upon Google translate, Kanji drawing programmes and Chinese/Japanese colleagues for assistance.

So to conclude this is a Nakajima Sakae piston with a bore of 130mm – liberated from a crashed aircraft.

The bore and design suggest it is from a Sakae 12 as used in a variety of IJN and IJA aircraft ?
